Conditions

Infections With CPB

Keywords

Carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae, antibiotic resistancy, infections with Carbapenemase-producing Bacteria (CPB), Carbapenemase-producing Bacteria

Brief summary

This retrospective and prospective study is to investigate the incidence of Carbapenemase-producing bacteria (CPB) at the University Hospital Basel, the time to detection of CPB and to initiation of infection control measures, the risk factors associated with carriage of CPB, type and duration of previously administrated antibiotic medication, antibiotic treatment, as well as to assess the outcomes of the affected patients.

Interventions

OTHERdata collection for demographic data

data collection for demographic data (age, gender, hospital admission and discharge date, length of stay, hospitalization prior to current hospital stay (acute care facilities, long-term healthcare centres, nursing homes), discharge destination, outcome, cause of death, travel history, previous exposure to antibiotics and proton pump Inhibitors)

OTHERdata collection for clinical data

data collection for clinical data (comorbidities, Charlson Comorbidity Index, immunosuppressive treatment, date of diagnosis of CPB, days between hospital admission and diagnosis of CPB, type of consecutive infection, indwelling vascular hardware, urinary catheterization, surgical therapies)

OTHERdata collection for treatment data

data collection for treatment data (antibiotic therapy, immunosuppressive therapy, concomitant medication)

OTHERdata collection for microbiological data

data collection for microbiological data (species of CPB, type of sample, date of sample, history of colonization or infection with any antibiotic resistant pathogen)
